The latest in Waterproof/Shockproof digital cameras, the Nikon CoolPix AW100Thursday, September 01, 2011

Nikon has released the latest in Waterproof/Shockproof digital cameras, the CoolPix AW100.

Featuring a 16MP CMOS sensor, 5x wide image stabilized zoom lens and 1080p HD video recording; the Nikon AW100 is the perfect companion for those adventure seekers. The newly designed rugged chassis is built to withstand harsh environments, yet is compact and lightweight enough to pack for a weekend on a trail.

The fast and compact CoolPix AW100 can be used underwater to a depth of 10 meters, is shock resistant from a drop of 1.5 meters and weather resistant down to a chilly minus 10 degrees. The battery-chamber, SD card slot, HDMI mini connector and USB/audio video connector are securely covered to prevent intrusion from the elements.

The new GPS function and internal map display allow photos to be displayed via location information and saves latitude and longitude information in the image data. The Nikon AW100 will also track location while not in use so the user can show an accurate map of their travels up the mountain or kayaking down a river. The AW100 also includes an E-compass, allowing the user to orientate via the LCD screen.

The new Nikon CoolPix AW100 has four colour options (Black, Orange, Camo and Blue) and is available for $386.00
